I write all most every day of what goes on in our home in the garden and in the nursery. We are ordinance workers at the Manti Temple on the Tuesday morning shift and the Saturday evening shift. In addition there are several trips to Utah county a couple of times a month and a few short trips to other mountain west areas. Our family is most important to us. All of our children live in Utah except one who lives in Kentucky.

Cursed Again, the Belhausin Car
Fred and Ann Belhasen paid us a visit yesterday. They arrived about 1:30 and after a short visit we had lunch at Cluffs in Fillmore. The food was really good but we had quite a long wait to be served. From left to right. Fred, Anne, Carol, and me, Merrill.
We toured the nursery, visited some, and after supper we watched the video of Momamia. It took quite a while to get the video to start playing. Anne went to the car to get some things for bed. She put the key in the ignition and couldn't get it out. The left the light on and the battery was dead. It was late and we would charge the battery in the morning.
Fred had an appointed for some blood testing. They had to leave by eight to make to their appointment. We had to hurry and get things done. I picked the cucumbers and some corn. We put these in Anne's car. After breakfast I hooked the battery charge to their car battery which was in the trunk.
The charger did not seem to work. I got the direction and still could not get it to work. I drove the car up close to their trunk. I hooked the battery cables correctly. There was enough boost to get the key out. But car would not start. the battery terminals on our car were covered and I could not get a good connection. I then called Triple A to send someone over to start the car. Thirty minutes went by and no help from Triple A. I brought the truck over and hooked up the jumper cable. Nothing. I used my heavy duty cables. Nothing. I then got the wire and cleaned the truck battery' post. Tried again and the car started. I called Tipple A and canceled the call.
I worked most of the rest of the day in house one. I cut rebar into six inch pieces. I ended up with 27 pieces. With these pieces I was able to hang one row of tomatoes.
I removed some weeds and hung this whole row of tomato plants. I wore cotton gloves that helped me keep my hands somewhat clean. My shirt and pants had green on them from the tomato plants.
I pruned some of the gourd plants. They are growing branches.
I went home teaching.
